I had botox done on my forehead and 11's (between eyes) on 12/30/14. It's now been one month but I noticed my forehead feels different. When I first got it, it felt kind of 'heavy' and similar to having a plate under my forehead, but definitely not movable. Now I still cannot move my forehead but the feeling of heaviness and the plate feeling is gone ? Is this a sign it is beginning to wean ? I exercise nearly 6-7day/week, cardio (30-45min). I was not sure if exercises causes it to wear faster ?
Answer: Duration of botox effect It is very common to have a sensation of heaviness similar to a plate resting on your forehead initially once your Botox treatment begins to work. However, once this wears off, and you still have no movement in your forehead, rest assured that your treatment is still effective.However, the amount and placement of the Botox injected, as well as the strength of your muscles and how frequently you still attempt to use them, especially while exercising, will determine how long the Botox effect will last. It is a good idea to keep track of the length of time that your Botox effect lasts, so that you can discuss this with your physician at your next appointment, and this way, your physician can put together a Botox treatment plan for you that will last for 3-4 months. At Edelstein Cosmetic, we follow the Optimized Beauty System, which ensures that your Botox lasts for 3-4 months. We schedule your appointments in this time frame so that your facial muscles do not have a chance to relearn the wrinkle-forming movements again, all while using the optimal Botox dosing for you!

Answer: Has My Botox Worn Off? Hi Nick. The key factor in determining whether the product has worn off is muscle movement. As soon as you can frown completely the effects are gone and this typically happens after 3-4 months. So, even though it feels a little different now, as long as you can't frown, the product is still working.

Answer: Duration of Botox Treatment The duration of the result with Botox treatment is directly related to the dose injected. If a lesser dose was used, your duration may be less then previous treatments. The heaviness and plate sensation is common after treatment of the glabella and forehead. Even though this sensation is gone, your result may persist for another 60 days.Exercise should not change duration, although I think there are certain patients that never get a full 3 months with their treatment.
